    San Remo is not an option due to too little accommodation, if I'm not wrong it was a gravel rally in the Tuscany area they were talking about? Correct me if I'm wrong.

    I was talking to some Italian guys in Hafren on WRGB, and they said that San Remo would never happen as the costs are much to high for the organisers compared with Sardinia.

    Why was it dropped the last time it ran btw?
    I've only heard from people that has been there that they don't wish to go back due to the way they were treated and very aggressive street sellers, i guess it's different where the rally runs though. To me the faster the better, huge difference watching onboards from Spain vs Wales, slow long corners on tarmac can get tiresome.

    Indonesia won't happen until they can reliably close the roads. I remember talking to Possum about when he ran there and he accrued 12min of penalties as he cleaned up a family walking down the middle of the road on a blind corner.

    Wow, i never heard things like that before. When did that happen?

    As Indonesian, i admit that could be a problem, and is a problem, although i never heard such complain during its WRC era

But unfortunately no words were about that at the moment.
    Money, politics, contacts. Greece had big chance to replace Poland for 2017, but it didnt happened. Now the situation is much worse for them...

    On the WRC website the calendar graphic does specify Sardinia now. So it's looking good - despite no official confirmation yet. I think next year will be the final time it's in Sardinia though.

    I think some of us don't like the fact that Turkey came out of nowhere, having done nothing previously to deserve inclusion and bought it's way into the championship...

    It's quite easy to understand, why some of us that are into international politics think a WRC-round in turkey is wrong.
    Erdogan is one of them, the undoubtly not good situation in the country is an other one.
    A country that put mayor parts of its socalled "enemies" into jail, without any scentence or fair trail, is not worthy eighter tourists or a world championship of any sort.
    Its been like a WRC-round in Israel or Saudi Arabia.
